McNEESE STATE UNIVERSITY
Federal requirements established by the Stop Campus Hazing Act require all colleges and universities to post and maintain public hazing incident transparency reports. These reports are intended to ensure accountability, raise awareness, and prevent future harm by providing clear documentation of hazing incidents on campus.
McNeese stands in solidarity with this requirement, as we believe transparency helps educate students about the risks and accountability standards associated with hazing violations.

I am a McNeese graduate with a bachelor's degree in Family and Consumer Science and a concentration in Child and Family Studies. As a student, I competed on the rodeo team and served on the SGA board. I earned my master’s degree in 2022 from the University of South Dakota in Educational Administration and Leadership with a concentration in Adult and Higher Ed. I have over 13 years of experience in adult education and 20 years of educational experience.
My favorite part of being a Freshman Advisor is helping students navigate their new life routine as a college freshman by offering support with in-person office visits or by email to help students meet their goals. I always remind students of my favorite BB King quote – “Education is one thing no one can ever take away from you.” I believe that supporting students is vital to a student's success.
In my spare time, I raise registered American Brahman cattle, and I enjoy all the "country girl" things like hunting, fishing, growing a garden and cooking.
